Other ingredients of these Salts have a stimulating effect upon the internal organs, and assist them to expel the lissolred uric acid from the system. R.C.M.P. Detachment Feature At C.N.E. The all-star detachment of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, wh'ch was a brilliant feature of the recent Coronation parade in London, and which thrilled New York at the Madison Square Garden Horse Show, Is being specially "prepped" for the Canadian National Exhibition. Permi.s.<rion has been granted by the Federal Government for the at- tendance of this extranrdinar'ly fine unit of thirty-tv.?o anii their careful- ly .selected horses throughout the en- tire period of the l-lxhibition, where ',hey will be one of the new attrac- â- ,ions at the frrandstand sliow. This detachment of "Scarlet Riders of the Plains," with all they represent of romance and tradifon, unquestion- ibly is the finest turnout of the fa- mous "mounties" ever presented for public appro\al. The horaes alone would be an at- traction anywhere. Only 220 horses are nov; used by "The Mounted," the expansion of the service and its duties having rosult- ?d in the acquisition of four hun- dred and seventy-five motor ('ars and 3ver one hundred marine vessels and powerboats. Airplanes, too, now have entered into the patrol service Dn the Atlan'.ic nnd Pacific seaboards but the unit to be seen at the E.x- libition with their magnific'ont highly Taincd horses, will re;)res(;nt the ft'o'.-ld-famous force v.hich was or- ganized in IST3. to est.Tiilish and naintain l.-xw and order on fhc plains if the then Northwest Territories.

NEWS PARADE Commentary on the HIGHLIGHTS OF THE WEEKS NEWS - liy Peter Kaiidal Lessons For Canada Issue No. 27 -'37 c-i Spanish Incident Buried in the week's news, a very small item announces that 104 Am- ericans, volunteers in the Spanish Loyalist armies, are believed drown- ed from the steamship Ciudad de Barcelona. The ship is thought to have been torpedoed in the open Mediterranean, between Barcelona and Valencia, by a foreign sub- marine. Back in 1915 a similar incident oc- curred when the Lusitania was sunk by a German submarine. Americans lost their lives and a nation, which had been wavei'ing in balances weighted for the Germans, was brought into action against them. Today, the same violation of the laws of the high seas bring nothing but a mention. Perhaps it is an indication that wars have not always been en- tered from a sense of outraged honor but after a cold consideration of the chances for success. Right now no one wants a war, but the feeling per- sists that it is not because of honor but rather a desire to live and wait â€" until the guns are ready. Popular Trend Spanish political fashions â€" what- ever their doubtful popularity at home are beginning to go abroad. For a year and fifteen days, a mild mannered little man tried to steer France through shoals both foreign and domestic. He tried to give the working man a forty-hour week, higher wages, social security. This week he was forced to admit defeat and a deficit of 51,800,000,000, for the past six months. .Apparently, the average Frenchman doesn't want the things e.\-Premier Blum tried to give him. In any event, the little man was turned down by the French Senate when he asked for sweeping powers to level the franc and to se- cure fresh revenue:; by control of foreign trade and taxation. Now, they have a Popular Front in France, a mixture of Socialists, Communists, and Radical Socialists led by Camille Chautemps. .\s usual, Chautemps is optimistic about the' future of his government, but it remains to be seen whether he can beat a record of one year and fifteen days â€" . Twice premier beicre this present summons, Chautemps' hxeA goveniment. in 19.34, li'.sleti Iwi'- •iiontl-. Irhare The Land Germany has a new "share the land" plan. Thr government has an- nounced the redistribution of thou- sands of acres including much prop- erty formerly belonging to the Church. Small holdings will be laid out â€" holdings grouped into state controlled collectives for use of ef(uip- ment and disposal of produce. About the only difference existing between the German plan of socalization and the Soviet plan of state ownership will be the nominal ownership of the land by the peasant.^. Since this ownership will depend ent'rely upon the use to which they put the land in the opinion of the government, it will readily be seen that the differ- ence is more in name than in fact. Soviet Achievement Great things a:e being achieved by the Soviets and not only in the realm of economic and jjolilical science. Last week, three Russian airmen left Moscow for San FrancisiH) by way of the North Pole. .After sixty-four hours in the air, they landed just 580 miles short of their goal. The flight was daring but more than that, it was spectacular in the amount of preparation and careful research be- hind it. For years, Soviet airmen and scientists have been studying weather and flying conditions in the .A.rctic. Bases have been extended until quite recently one was establish- ed at the Pole itself. This last v/cathor observation po.-';, located on floating ice at the world's peak was of invaluable aid in the final plotting of the successful (light. The Rus- sians are justly proud of the work of their scientists and airmen. Their achievement marks a nc.v departure in aviation 3 Days to Europe ! While the Russians are engaged in the development of a regular air route across the roof of the world, plans are going forward lapidly for the testing of regular trans-Atla.ntlc flight. Simultaneously on July 5th, planes will leave Ireland and the shores of Newfoundland for experi- mental flights which, it is hoped will result in the establishment of regu- lar air schedules across the last great ocean. Sky Conquor â€" And Safety At such a time, it is interesting to know something of the equipment that is making long distance flight over land or water such an ordinary part of our lives. There is, for ex- just brought into service for tran.s- contincntal flight The new plane will shuttle from New York to Los An- geles in slightly over fifteen hours, carry twenty-five passenger:, and cruise at 218 miles per hour. Com- fort, awake or asleep, will be com- parable to the best on the ground. Then, there are the new "Ensign" liners, fourteen of which are under construction for Imperial Airways. These twenty-ton, four-motored giants will see service on the European air lanes, to Egypt and farther afield to Calcutta. Luxury and comfort will be the last word while the safety re- serve will be greater than that em- bodied in any ship ever built. The world is surely shrinking â€" sometimes we think it is shrinking too fast for comfortable living with the neigh- bors. Sky Adventuress * Despite the advance of science, there are still adventurous souls on the skyways of the world. At this moment, somewhere over the Pacific Ocean, a woman is flying to keep a speaking engagement in Los .Angeles on July 28th. There may be storms or a hundred and one things to pre- vent her arrival, but Amelia Earhart has calmly planned what she .vill do when she reaches the American con- tinent. Miss Earhart is expected to keep a radio engagement on Monday night. Lux Radio Hour, at nine! Amos n' Andy And, speaking of radio. . . children who have been born during the past eight years will probably remember to the end of their days, the antics of Amos 'n' Andy. The famous pair have just announced the end of their long association with the Pepsodent Company to take place New Year's Day. Right now, they are looking for a new sponsor. Und of "Never, Never" In England, the creator of "Peter Pan" has just taken the last journey into the land of "never, never." Sir James Barrie is dead but, wherever Christmas is observed and there arc children, his memory will be kept in a little place apart from all the other artists of his day. "Peter Pan" ranks along with "Cyriuio" and "Hansel and Gretel" of the children's Christ- mas musical world. It is interesting to know that chihiren, whenever they go to see their favorites, Peter and Wendy, will be helping others of their kind. Some years ago, Barrie gave the rights to Peter Pan to the Great Ormond Street Hospital for Sick Children, in London, England. Greatest Police In The World Ho would be a dull-spirited man who couhl go to Portsmouth and watch the review of the Fleet by l!ic King without feeling a thrill of pride. There before him will lie that Navy whose glorious traditim.s have made men and worn, n* aye, and children, tooâ€" of all nations say: "Tbank God for the British .N'uvy." For it is not so much the might of the Brit.sh Navy that will thrill all who witness the Spitheail Review. It is the great humanity of the British sailor. Those warships that ride at anchor so easily, yet have the leashed power of millions of horse-power, the terribl" potentialities of hundreds of guns, are used mainly as the world'*! grtasist police force in the world. The Roy.il Navy is always active -yet vhere is no war. The seciet behind that paradox lies in the fact thai the Royni Navy is principally used as a f'^rcc for peace and human- ity. None ivho has read the stirring story of the Navy's work in Spain is doubtful of this. .And Spain is only one page in the great story of rescues on land and sea that have been ef- fected by the Rojal Navy. One more point â€" as you watch that great review remember the months of patient work that it has entailed. Triis pageant on the great- est stage in the world has only been made possible by the unremitting attention and caro of hundreds of officers and men who have organized it for your benefit.

SLICED VERY THIN By Stxbits "No Matter How Thin You Slice It â€" It's StUI Boloney" ,-oq««»»i««»«*>«»<«>«>*s«»««»«»essssss>sss>>>»>s> For the first time in almost ten years a man who looks lik« a real fighter is wearing the heavyweight crown; for while attempts will un- doubtedly be made to belittle Joe Louis, he seems to have what it takes. And when, if and as he meets Maxie Schmeling, we don't mind going out on the bough and predicting that Joe will take the German like Wally took David. • « » Looking over the champs since Gene Tuniiey decided that he would rather have a million bucks and his senses than keep on until his eggs got addled, it must be admitted that they are a fairly scurvy crew. « « « First of all they elected Jack Sharkey and Max Schmeling and said that whichever of the tv.o could win would be declared the boss of the heavies. And the aroma of that fight still lingers on like the perfume of a fish and chip emporium on a torrid July day. • * « That, in case you disreniember, was the fight where the referee awarded the duke to the German on a foul four minutes after he had been knocked tlat on h s sit-down * Â¥ « Then, si.\ months later, the same N'ew York Athletic Commission or Percentage â€" which had "elected" Maxie to the title dethroned him because he refused to fight a return bout with .Sharkey â€" and half a year later nominated the latter as champion. « « * In 1932 this precious pair met again, and this time Mr. Sharkey won a decision in fifteen rounds. • • • A year after than tame the "fight" between Primo Camera and Sharkey at the Long Island Bowl, when the huge Italian was probably the most astonished man present â€" which is saying a lot â€" when he knocked Sharkey out with the breeze of a right uppercut by as far as we personally are distant from being solvent. • » • Three years ago this monthâ€" Maxie Baer â€" billed as Jack Demp- sey the second, probably because he had the same number of eyes and ears as the old Mauler, met big Primo, for the title. The big boy from Mussollniville was up and down like a penny stock â€" being knocked down, or falling down twelve times in eleven rounds, a fractured ankle very likely being of little help to him. • * • That made Mr. Baerâ€" Heaven help u.s â€" holder of the crown for- merly worn by Corbett, Fitzsimnions, Jeffries, Johnson, Dempsey and Tunney â€" a belly laugh if ever there was one. « * • In June, l'.)35, for no good reason, Jimmy Braddock was tossed in against Baer â€" and most folks though it was .similar to tossing a juicy Christian to a starving Neronian lion. Braddock was supposed to be all washed up â€" but he wasn't nearly as thoroughly washed up Baer was burned out And at the end of fifteen rounds Mr. Brad- doclc discovered himselfâ€" much to his own amazement no doubt â€" the champion. • « • Two years he held the tiUe â€" about as unproductive a two years as a champ. on ever spent â€" for his management didn't even seem to have sense enough to gather a few pickings in the way of vaudeville, moving picture, and exhibition ring engagements. It Is said that the .$31,000 which Braddock earned for beating Baer has long gone the way of .ill dtuigh, and that he had tdtten into Promoter Mike Jacobs very heavily before Tuesday's fight â€" a bite which will, naturally, have to bo plastered out of the takings of the Comiskey Park brawl. • • • So now Joe Louisâ€" "no black man will ever again be allowed to hold the title" â€" is the boss of the heavyweights â€" and from present in- dications should hold that title just as long as he cares to keep in reasonably decent shape. • * « As we said before, attempts will be made to belittle Louis and h s abilities and ai-hievements â€" just as was done in the case of Jack Johnson, in the opinion of many, including the present commentator, , the greatest heavyweight who ever drew on a glove. # * V But Joe is a real lighter â€" make no mislage about that â€" and the way he softened Braddock down, taking no chances on a stray shot, anti then lashing out so suddenly when the precise moment came, was a real ma.sterpiece.
